Yes, that works in some degree. Actually my first try was some
combinations of Now() function, but had to drop the idea.
yymmddhhmmss, this number repeats itself once every 100 years, but
too long to use.
mmss, this number repeats 24 times a day.
mmddhhmmss repeats once a year, not likely to get hit but it is
possible.
